TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:3-4  In the Old Testament, arrows are associated with supernatural peril, pestilence, and destructive ills (7:20; 16:12-13; Deut 32:23-24, 42; Pss 7:12-13; 38:2; 64:7; 91:5-6; Lam 2:4; 3:12-13; Ezek 5:16).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

חִצֵּ֪י שַׁדַּ֡י עִמָּדִ֗⁠י אֲשֶׁ֣ר חֲ֭מָתָ⁠ם שֹׁתָ֣ה רוּחִ֑⁠י

arrows almighty with=me which/who poison,their drinks my=breath/wind/spirit

Job is speaking as if God had literally shot arrows with poison into him. He means that the bad things that have happened to him, for which he considers God responsible, are making him suffer and feel desperate, as if he were dying from the poison. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I am suffering desperately because of what the Almighty has done to me”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

חִצֵּ֪י שַׁדַּ֡י עִמָּדִ֗⁠י אֲשֶׁ֣ר חֲ֭מָתָ⁠ם שֹׁתָ֣ה רוּחִ֑⁠י

arrows almighty with=me which/who poison,their drinks my=breath/wind/spirit

Job is using the possessive form to refer to an inner part of himself, the locus of his motivations and aspirations, as his spirit. He is not referring to a separate supernatural being, a spirit, that belongs to him. You could indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “my morale is suffering desperately because of what the Almighty has done to me”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

שֹׁתָ֣ה

drinks

Job is speaking as if his spirit were literally drinking poison from arrows that had struck him. He means, within the context of that metaphor, that his spirit is absorbing the poison. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “is absorbing”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

בִּעוּתֵ֖י אֱל֣וֹהַּ יַֽעַרְכֽוּ⁠נִי

terrors god arrayed,me

Job is speaking of the terrors of God (that is, the things he believes God is doing to terrify him) as if they were living things that could array themselves against him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “God is doing many things that all terrify me”
